My Little Fishy...

Sophia loves the water more than anything. So yesterday when it was so warm out, I thought I would fill up her little pool and let her cool off in it and have some fun. While she was taking her nap, I filled up her pool and let the sun warm up the water. When she woke up from her nap and saw the pool all ready to go, I could barely keep her from climbing in! I got her changed into her swim suit (as fast as I could), and it took her only a few seconds until she put her arms up in the air and said, "Mom", to have me pick her up and put her in the pool. It was nice, because the sun had warmed up the water quite a bit and the temperature was very comfortable.

Playing with her sand toys in the pool

She splashed and played and had so much fun going down the slide! She even got in on her tummy and laid completely in the water. She has been getting more and more brave in the water and her new thing to do is stick half of her head in the water. Jeff and I clap for her and she feels like such a big girl. It's so adorable. Because the pool is plastic, it can get pretty slippery, and Sophia did slip and fall down a few times, but it didn't bother her. She would just get up and wipe her eyes and continue to play. I am so glad I don't have a kid that's afraid of getting water in their face. She wold have stayed in all day, but when she started to shiver, I thought she had been in the water too long. But boy did it get out some of her energy! She came to me with her blanky in hand at around 7:30 (which is early for her as of lately), and wanted to go to bed. I rocked her for about 10 minutes and she snuggled up to me and went out like a light!

I am really looking forward to when I quit at the end of July so me and Sophia can spend many more days like this together playing in her pool outside and enjoying the summer sun!
